Home » Ways to Help » Volunteering Opportunities
Volunteers are an essential part of Ancaster Community Services. They are the foundation on which our agency is built. We have a team of approximately 100 volunteers who dedicate their time, talents and resources to deliver our vital programs and services to the community.
We are currently recruiting volunteers for the Assisted Volunteer Driving and Shopping 4 Seniors programs only. Volunteers for the Assisted Volunteer Driving program take older adults to medical and professional appointments in the Hamilton area. Volunteers with the Shopping 4 Seniors program grocery shop for a local senior and drop the groceries off at their residence. Please call us or submit your application today to get started!
All other programs at Ancaster Community Services have enough volunteers at this time. If you submit an application now, we will contact you when opportunities become available.
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at Ancaster Community Services.
Most of our programs require you to be 18+ and have a valid drivers license. However, there may be opportunities available at our Youth Engagement Program, The Net. For more information, please email Grace at thenet@hpl.ca or click here to visit their Instagram page @thenetacs.
